3. WR Rashad Ross

The Redskins have consistently been sitting Rashad Ross to start the season. That probably will not change unless the team decides to give Josh Doctson some time off at any point in the season. That said, they seem to be set on playing Doctson for now so Ross will sit.

The Redskins already have enough players on special teams to compensate for the not having Ross. Ross’ main value is as a return man. They have Jamison Crowder to occupy that role, so dressing Ross is redundant. He is a great depth player, but he will not see much action barring injuries.
